Major issues with performance after mysql restore

[Kyle Shapiro]

Hello, first time posting here and new to mysql. I am having an issues in regards to mysql performance after a mysql workbench restore of a large database. The database is 71gb in size, so I understand that the restoration process through workbench will take some time, but that's not the issue. After the restore, the database is extremely slow to run queries to return order data from customers and also the mysql dump backup process now takes over 7 hours. The CPU and MEM on the server don't appear to be the issue as the process is taking very little resources. This server also has 8vCPUs assigned with 64GB or RAM. This specific DB was restored onto a working server that did not have any issues prior to this DB restore. The backup of this database was taken with a standard command line mysql dump of a single schema. I have done a mysqlcheck on the database which returned no errors.

I'd like to add that I am not a MySQL DBA and my knowledge of this topic is extremely limited. I am very new to this. If anyone has any ideas of where I can do some additional troubleshooting, it would be helpful.
